TEHRAN – 191 Iranian lawmakers have issued a statement condemning the “merciless massacre” of Muslim people in Libya, Yemen, Bahrain, and Morocco.

The statement says, “The sorrowful incidents which have occurred in Libya, Yemen, Bahrain, and Morocco and merciless killing of people by the despotic rulers are reminiscent of the crimes perpetrated by all the dictators who tried to remain in power throughout the history…
“We, the representatives of the great Iranian nation, condemn these crimes and once again announce that we strongly back the Islamic nations’ campaigns.”
The MPs also criticized the U.S. government for remaining silent or taking equivocal stances toward the autocratic rulers’ criminal actions.
They called on the Organization of the Islamic Conference to take immediate action and pressure the “criminal rulers of these countries” to stop killing innocent people with heavy weapons and warplanes.
